Overview

The government of Malaysia introduced its 2023 quota projections on 7 October 2022. Employers who are registered with the Expatriate Services Division (ESD) will now be permitted to submit employment quota projections for the issuances and renewal of Employment Passes (EP) and Professional Visit Passes (PVP) for 2023.

Employers must provide justification for hiring foreign nationals, along with any supporting documents. Additionally, employers should provide information on the total number of local employees and the number of foreign national employees employed in Malaysia.
